Chapter 26 Changning Village

Chen Shi retracted the fishing net behind the boat, opened it and took a look, only to find that the fishing net had not been broken, and dozens of fresh fish were still churning inside.

Chen Shi was not in a hurry to collect the nets, he picked out a few slightly smaller ones from the pile of fish, and then threw them back into the river.

The fish fell into the water, spat out a few bubbles, and immediately fled into the deep water.

These fish were exchanged for their lives, and seeing Uncle Chen throw them away so simply, Ye Fan looked puzzled.

"Uncle Chen, this is all the fruit of your hard work, why did you throw it away like this?"

Uncle Chen turned around and explained: "Let the benefactor smile, in fact, it is my lady, she often tells me that everything has a spirit, and it should not be easily abused, and I have been with my wife for a long time, I haven't gone down to the river to do this business for four or five years, this time I went into the water because my lady was sick recently, and I hid from her to go into the water to earn money to buy medicine for her!" ”

"The remaining fish is enough to buy medicine, so it's better to put these more than that!"

Hearing this, Ye Fan was silent, thinking that the fisherman's lady must have a compassionate heart, the equality of all living beings is the highest idea of Buddhism, even Ye Fan himself cannot treat all living beings and all things equally.

After loading the remaining fish into a net, Uncle Chen rowed to the shore with only half of the wood pulp left.

There is a peaceful village near the waterfront called Changning Village.

The village is small, with hundreds of families, and the people here either work the fields for a living, hunt for a living, or fish for a living.

When you come to the entrance of the village, you can see the splendid green mountains and green waters, and the large fields under the mountain.

On several dirt roads extending outward from the village, a group of local chickens and dogs wandered, and a group of farmers passed by, causing this group of poultry and chickens to jump and dogs to jump, so it was not lively.

Ye Fan followed Uncle Chen along the dirt road into the village, and saw an empty field in the distance, where a group of children were playing together.

"Coiled feet, coiled for three years. Descending the dragon and tiger, the horse ape ......."

The nursery rhymes sung by the children are catchy, jumping and hilarious, and they all seem to be extremely happy.

"Look, it's Uncle Chen!"

I don't know which child shouted, and a circle of five or six-year-old children looked at Ye Fan and Chen Shi together. Then a group of children immediately ran over.

"Hello Uncle Chen!"

One by one, they bent down, respectful and polite, without a trace of childish bears.

"Well, hello! Big Tiger, Iron Egg, Five Girls........ You're all very well behaved today! After Chen Shi said hello one by one, a group of children left happily.

Most of the children in the village have endured hardships, and although they are young, they are not very impetuous, nor do they dislike adults, and they are very sensible.

Seeing the backs of the children who were far away, Ye Fan smiled and said, "Uncle Chen, it seems that you are quite a child!" ”

Chen Shi sighed with emotion: "Hi! I don't have any ability, it's my wife who has a good medical skill and gives free medical treatment to all the children in the village, and these children remember my mother's goodness, so they are so affectionate to me! ”

Hearing Uncle Chen's words, Ye Fan was silently shocked, it seems that Uncle and his wife are a master!

Uncle Chen took the fish and went to a large family in the village to collect fish to exchange some silver money, and cut a few catties of meat from a butcher on the side of the road.

Then come to the only dilapidated hospital in the village.

Sitting in the hall of the hospital was an old master who was nearly a sixtieth year, and when the old master heard someone knocking on the door, he raised his cloudy eyes.

When he saw that it was Chen Shi, the old man's weather-beaten face looked surprised.

"Xiao Chen! What are you doing here? ”

Chen Shi touched his head and said embarrassedly: "It's my lady who is sick and wants to come to you to buy some medicine!" ”

When the old master heard this, he immediately shook his head and said slightly angrily: "Xiao Chen, I said, why are you so brainless? Your lady has a disease that she can't cure, and it's useless for you to look for me! ”

The old master's medical skills even had to be guided by Chen Shi's lady.

"Actually, my lady doesn't have any serious illness, but he doesn't look good lately, and he's a little weak! So I want to come to you to buy some tonic medicine and go back! ”

When the old master heard this, he regained the demeanor of a man: "Oh! It turned out to be a tonic, right, there's no problem, you can wait a while! ”

The old master said that he went to the medicine cabinet in the back to grab the medicine.

Ye Fan, who was following behind Chen Shi, also took the opportunity to take a look at this pharmacy, although it was dilapidated, many things were complete, and this Changning Village could have such a pharmacy, which showed that this village was still very prosperous.

While thinking about it, Ye Fan suddenly felt an indifferent look behind him.

Ye Fan immediately looked back, but saw a shadow in the distance quickly disappearing into the dark alley.

Ye Fan frowned.

Did I just sense it wrong? Ye Fan faintly felt a trace of malice just now, but when he first came to this village, how could he make people hate.

Thinking about it like this, Ye Fan shook his head, it must be his own delusion! Turning his head away, he didn't pay attention to it.

The old master took out the medicine and wrapped it in paper, and handed it to Chen Shi's hands: "These are two tonics, the medicinal properties are neutral, and they have the effect of calming the nerves." ”

Chen Shi took it and immediately thanked: "Thank you so much!" ”

After paying, Chen Shi was full of joy, and then looked at Ye Fan: "Benefactor, let you wait for a long time, we will go home!" ”

"Good!" Ye Fan nodded.

Walk along the south side of the village, and at the end of the road, you will see a simple but shabby earthen hut.

At the door sat a plainly dressed woman, dressed in a simple long dress, about thirty years old, with an unadorned countenance but already stunningly beautiful.

The woman bowed her head and patiently knitted a sweater with her dexterous hands, while two children, a man and a woman, played.

Seeing the woman at the door, Chen Shi immediately walked forward to say hello: "Lady, I'm back!" ”

The woman raised her head, saw Chen Shi, and immediately showed a smile on her calm face, put down her work, and got up to greet her.

"Xianggong! You're back! ”

The two children who were playing on the side also rushed over and threw themselves into Chen Shi's arms.

"Daddy! Listen to me, my mother taught me to learn ancient poetry today! ”

"Humph! Brother, don't rob me of my father! ”

Seeing that the two children began to compete for Chen Shi, the woman immediately reprimanded: "Xinxin, An An, don't make trouble, your father is tired enough today, you two take a break!" ”

Hearing the woman's reprimand, the expressions of the two children immediately fell, and with an oh sound, they obediently shrank out of Chen Shi's arms.

"You two, let me go into the house and practice my calligraphy!"

The woman commanded in a majestic manner, and the two children shrugged their heads back into the house like soldiers under orders.

After reprimanding the two children, the woman's gaze fell on Ye Fan behind Chen Shi, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Xianggong, who is this?"
